In the Spirit of Bret Harte

Has Trump been a russian asset since 1987?

A vast web of conspiracy

The media has treated the notion that Russia has personally compromised the president of the United States as something close to a kook theory. A minority of analysts, mostly but not exclusively on the right, have promoted aggressively exculpatory interpretations of the known facts, in which every suspicious piece of evidence turns out to have a surprisingly innocent explanation. And it is possible, though unlikely, that every trail between Trump Tower and the Kremlin extends no farther than its point of current visibility.

You Trumpies just don’t get it. For us this not about politics, for us it’s about right and wrong and the future of our democracy. Convict Hillary of whatever you can prove. We don’t give a shit. Trump is the real threat to our freedom.
You need to wake up.

I get your fear, TE, but there are too many checks and balances for President Trump to do any serious damage to our Democratic Republic. (please stop calling it a Democracy, you know our form of government is not a democracy…) How on earth is your freedom being threatened? Tyrants and dictators almost always take guns on their way to absolute power. That is why those of us that lean right are so suspicious of the left trying everything they can to limit free people from possessing weapons to defend themselves, their families, communities and to uprise against an oppressive government if that were to happen, which I personally feel HAS been happening since the turn of the 19th century. The thing that left leaning folk fear the most IS happening: the SCOTUS is going to be leaning right for a generation. Let’s see what happens. But somehow we all need to figure out how to discuss issues instead of railing. And I’m ashamed at some of the things I’ve lashed out about recently. It’s definitely not helping to promote any discourse when I do that.

You have it right TE. The trumpies are blind to what is happening in the rest of the world. Europe is moving ahead and their democracies are healthy. Our is growing brittle with dogma and reversals of human rights. We are polarized in our body politic. Compromise is a thing of the past. Not good signs.

Right leaning folk are not blind to what is going on in the rest of the world. Most of the European countries are Socialist, not Democracies. True Democracies operate on the people voting on everything. That does not happen in European Countries. Ask a Swedish citizen how they feel about the EU forcing them to take close to 2 million immigrants in the last 10 years. Sweden has a population of close to 10 million. Violent crimes are rising rapidly there and many Swedes are balking at open borders. Their welfare system is being crushed and health care is becoming a major issue. I agree with you on your statements of polarization and compromise. The problems we have on our southern border can be fixed by a firm and enforceable immigration reform. That’s why the President and many right leaning folk want a wall built. You’ve heard the term, Good Fences Make Good Neighbors, correct? Dont know if it will happen, but I’d like to see it happen. The Secure Fence Act of 2006 was passed with a Senate vote of 80-19. Then-President Bush signed it into law. Senator says Barack Obama, Senator Chuck Schumer and Senator Hillary Clinton voted in favor of the Secure Fence Act. President Trump just wants a biglier fence… errr… wall, what’s the problem?!

I say since the 70’s, when he met Ivana. The flipping and indoctrination began back then; and despite his attempt to free himself from this entanglement when he married wife #2; (which was the beginning of the end of his personal wealth);
he was brought back into the Soviet spider’s web with the union with wife #3.
Which “coincidentally”; was the beginning of the Start of his recouping his lost wealth of the early 2000’s and the full activation of political planning.
He kissed the Bear’s Ring and bowed to the Sickle to save his sorry Bankrupt @$$; selling Us, the U.S. out for Putin’s long ranged goals.
Tell me please; What other “American Patriot” in our government has married not 1, but 2 persons born and raised in Soviet Communist Party Card Carrying families???
And has correlated accumulating vast wealth Both times???
